Tucker Carlson takes on the “Great Replacement Theory” controversy

Tucker Carlson joins Glenn Beck to discuss all the crazy news of the past few weeks: the coup against Biden, the Harris/Walz ticket, the Trump assassination attempt, the DNC ... there has been a lot of insanity! Tucker explains why he believes "Biden ALLOWED Trump to get shot, intentional or not." Plus, he responds to the controversy around his discussion of the "Great Replacement Theory." Tucker explains why he believes that our culture is being replaced — the cultures of ALL Americans, not just one race or religion.

GLENN: Tucker Carlson, welcome to the program, sir. How are you? Tucker. Are you there? Oh, my gosh. Here it is again. Oh. Are you there? Hello.

TUCKER: I'm right here. Sorry, I'm grateful to be here, so thank you.

GLENN: Thank you. I'm excited to see you, what is it? September 7th, I think in Salt Lake City.

TUCKER: By the way, we're doing this tour, and I'm thinking, okay. I would love to bring people in. I know a lot of smart people. But there aren't a lot of people who can perform in front of a live audience.

It's a very different kind of person. You were literally the first person, I thought, oh, man.

GLENN: No. It's going to be fun. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No. I appreciate the invite. It's going to be fun.

It's going to be in Salt Lake City. The Delta Center. You know how many seats that has?

TUCKER: I have no idea. I'm so overwhelmed by it, I haven't looked.

GLENN: Tucker. Yeah. It's big. Yeah, it's big.

Delta Center, September 7th. You can get the tickets at Tucker Carlson.com. Tucker Carlson.com.

So Tucker, I haven't talked to you in a few weeks. Or a couple of weeks. And I would love your overall take on the insanity that we have seen from the attempted assassination to today.

What are your thoughts? What the hell is happening?

TUCKER: It actually -- it really is like a car crash. You know, everyone has been -- anyone has been in a car crash, or any kind of unexpected traumatic event knows it takes months to reconstruct what happened.

That's how I feel about what we've seen in the past six weeks, from the debate where it was just obvious four minutes in, that Biden did everything we suspected of Biden was true. That he did not continue. That he couldn't run the country. That he hadn't been running the country, and that he would be taken off the ticket. That was just immediately obvious to me. Then watching the coordinated media response to that. Where you realized, well, wait a second. Dana Bash was in on this.

All her colleagues at CNN, MSNBC, like they had their marching orders. They put them into effect.

And then you thought, well, wait. Everything is fake.

And I think a lot of people have begun to suspect that over the last few years. When it became clear be with the CIA was playing a meaningful role in our domestic elections.

Like, that's, you know, no one really thought.

Myself, I didn't really think that really could be happening. I thought, maybe only wackos only thought it could be happening, but then it turned out to be confirmed.

When that debate happened and the media as one, acting as one, as they always do, basically kicked Joe Biden off the ticket in the first six minutes after the debate. You realize, wait a second, like there's a whole level of control of governance.

GLENN: Yes!

TUCKER: That the view from voters, like we have no -- we have no role in this at all. Voting just plays no role in this.

We're not privy to the plan. And my gosh, you know, at the very deepest level, there is a conspiracy, maybe unarticulated. Maybe a conspiracy of like-minded temperament or instinct or whatever. But it's definitely coordinated, to disempower the rest of us, on behalf of the people that are already in charge.

And everything that happened since then. Confirmed it.

You know, the Biden administration allows Trump to get shot. Whether intentional or not.

They allowed it, having spent an awful lot of time at events with Secret service. I know you have as well, over 30 years.

That -- what they allowed to happen that day. You know, they allowed that.

GLENN: I know.

TUCKER: And then you were like, the Secret Service is corrupt.

So you have a country where the Secret Service, the presidential bodyguard, the Pretorian guard of the president is corrupt, is a political instrument.

And it joins the CIA and FBI and the entire DOJ. And ATF. And, you know, every three letter agency. They're all working on behalf of a political party. Or the ruling cabal that controls that political party.

I mean, that is just so bewildering that you think, well, what is true?

You know, what is this organization?

Who runs it?

Who has been behind the government for the past four years?

GLENN: That's what I have -- I have asked that question, of -- of everybody I know. And nobody seems to have an answer.

If you look at what's happening over in Europe. With their illegal problem, or their refugees.

And how the governments over there, are responding to the people, and you see, it's exactly the same problems, it's exactly the same laws.

The same responses. The same media response.

And then you know that Joe Biden is incapable of, who the hell has been the president?

Who is running this country?

TUCKER: Well, and what you're seeing around the world is really not around the world. It's just in traditional, Christian countries.

It's in the West. It's in Christendom. It's not happening in Egypt. It's not happening in Singapore. It's not happening, of course, in China or Japan. These are still ethnostates.

No one can contest their right to be that.

But it's happening in the historic homeland of Christianity from Scandinavia, really all the way to Hungary and Central Europe is kind of the border. They held the line. But everywhere else. Ireland. What has Ireland done to deserve this?

But the same thing is happening everywhere.

And you think, is this a conspiracy?

Is it a manifestation of spiritual war?

That's my conclusion. You know, I have no real evidence. But I don't see any explanation that makes sense.

I don't know. It's all happening at once.

As you said, exactly the same thing.

It's much bigger than the refugee agencies, pushing people in. The media is supporting them.

It's much.

This is the end of the civilization.

And what -- why?

Why would you want to destroy the civilization? Which they are doing, and probably to the point to where, it can't be fixed in any recognizable form.

Because demographics is really kind of the core question of a society.

Who lives in the country.

That's the basic question.

And I don't -- I don't know. I guess, this is a very long answer to a short question. But I just would sum it up by saying, it's so big. It's so bewildering. It's so distressing. That it's kind of shut my brain down. Only now I'm figuring out, what do you do? How do you respond to this?

I don't want -- yeah.

GLENN: So I've been saying for the last couple of weeks, you know, as I saw this whole thing unfold.

And know how close we are to the edge.

That this may be the last election. And I don't even know if it will be free and fair. But it will be the last election in the country, as we know it. Or have known it.

And it's -- you're kind of -- your last call.

I mean, if you vote for Harris/Biden. It is -- or, I mean, Harris/Walz.

You are -- you are pulling the -- the trigger of socialism. And authoritarianism.

I mean, it's all there, and they're saying it all out in the open.

And I'm hearing from 20-somethings that are saying. Oh, you guys always say, that it's going to be the most important election of your life. And it's not that bad.

How bad is it, Tucker?

TUCKER: Well, I think it's -- I don't think it's political, for one thing. So I don't think it's even worth thinking in terms of like the election or whatever.

It's like, the changes coming to the United States or are in progress in the United States. And then Western Europe. Begin all the way to the Hungary border. You know, sort of Austria West.

Also New Zealand. Also Australia. Also Canada. The Anglo -- the European world.

Like, the changes are so big, and so profound and permanent, that I -- you know, I don't even know -- I don't know anybody who fully understands what's going on. And I'm trying to find people who understand, and talk to them. So, you know, I don't know. But I think we should all be thinking in much, much bigger terms, than -- than we are.

I mean, I don't think the 2020 election was free and fair. Of course it wasn't. You can't have a democracy with censorship, by definition.

You don't even have to worry about electronic voting machines, to know that was not a free and fair election. If you don't have access to the information required to cast an informed vote, then the election is rigged.

Just by definition. That's where the First Amendment is first. Because it's a prerequisite for democracy. So -- and we don't have it now.

So -- but why? Like, what is this? Why would you want to destroy Christendom, which is what they're doing? And, well, because you hate Christianity is the answer.

And so those are the terms that I'm thinking of it, in. Because those are the correct terms. And I've never been religious or faithful. I'm certainly not a model of Christian living, that's for sure.

I'm going to buy chewing tobacco this afternoon, I can't wait. So I'm not a virtuous person. But I try to be an analytical person.

And reach conclusions on the basis of the evidence that I can see. Not the things I hear, but the things I see.

Because you can't disrupt your senses with lies, like I'm just trying to be honest with myself.

And I see a total transformation of the historically Christian world. And I don't know how it shakes out. But I know that the stakes couldn't be higher.

So preventing Kamala Harris and that incredibly creepy, you know, wrestling coach. Or football coach.

That guy -- air quotes. Running with her. I mean, he's just -- that guy is just completely undisguised. Like, I know exactly who that guy is.

That guy is creepy, period.

GLENN: Yeah.

TUCKER: So, but anyway, the fact that they would even run somebody like that, tells you what their agenda is. It's like a completely overturning the basis of civilization. Which is the relationship between a man and a woman, that produces children.

Like that's the basis of multiplication. And they're trying to overturn that.

GLENN: Right. Right.

So you got a lot of heat on the great replacement theory. When you were at Fox.

And a little bit -- and there is -- there is mounting evidence, of -- of this. With some people. You know, online.

That are of a different race. There was one that came out, I think yesterday. The day before. And this was a woman. She was in England.

And she said, look, there are -- the white population is going down.

And with all the, you know, newcomers. We're winning. We're winning.

That's -- that's replacement theory, at its worst.

However, there is a great replacement, that is going on, all throughout the Western world.

And that is the Christianity replacement with Islam. If you see what is happening in every country in the Middle East, and Dearborn, which nobody pays attention to here.

And Minnesota. You see that there is a replacement of our culture and our faith.

And it's a little terrifying, when you see the numbers.

Just the sheer numbers, in Europe.

Europe is -- is over!

TUCKER: Well, it's absolutely over.

And the thing I find hilarious, the reason I laughed is to call something demonstrably true, like gravity, a theory, is itself like deceptive.

So it's not a theory. It's a math question. So what's -- and, by the way, it's not racial. It's not even religious, in my opinion. It's just a math question. You have the people who lived in the United States, in the city, in 2000, before everything changed with 9/11. And those people and their descendants, at -- what rate are they reproducing?

And then, well, below replacement rate. But the country is growing really fast, because new people are being imported.

So by definition, again, as a math equation, the people who lived here in 2000, which was not that long ago. Are being replaced by immigrants.

And it's is not just whites.

It's native born blacks, actually. So you always hear, the country is getting -- well, you know, black people. African-Americans, as we call them. Have lived in this country, longer than, you know, it's not or Irish. You know, the hundreds of years their families have been here. They're Native Americans.

They're native born Americans. And they're being replaced too. And their political power is evaporating, which no one ever says, but it's true. And, you know, they don't vote the same way I do, by and large. But I think that people's families have been here for hundreds of years, like have some claim on the country, actually. I think that.

Call me crazy. And they are being replaced. Flatout. And anyone who says they're not being replaced or it's racist or bigoted, or anti-Semitic. To say that, like what? It has nothing to do with any of that. It's just a fact. And why are you doing this to us, actually? Nobody likes it. And -- but why? Why is this happening?

So, yeah. They buff and puff. But they've also written a bunch of books on how great it is. I mean, if you're sending vasectomy machines to the DNC.

GLENN: Yes, yeah. That's crazy.

TUCKER: Yeah. What is that about?

You know, it's clearly spiritual. And by the way, I would say, I don't think it's Islam that is the religion that is replacing us.

It's the LGBTQ religion, the global religion of childlessness.

GLENN: Well, I will tell you, that I agree with that.

But right now, they're, you know, playing footsy with the Islamist. And in the end, the Islamist will eat the LGBTQ community. It will just eat it.

TUCKER: Oh, 100 percent.

And I'm rooting for them. I am. I am. I'm hardly Muslim. I can tell you, having spent a lot of time in the Middle East the last few years, especially the Gulf, especially the Emirates, is much more tolerant and welcoming of Christianity than New York City is. And then Frankfurt, Germany, is, and London is.

I mean, you can go sit at a dinner party in Abu Dhabi and talk about how much you love Jesus, and everybody applause.

You know, try that in London. Try that in New York City. Like you can't. People hate you for that.

So, look, I don't know exactly what that means. I don't really know what anything means. But I've experienced that. And I think the real threat to -- you know, any religion that tells you, it's bad to have children or children don't matter, human life doesn't matter, is evil.

GLENN: Yes. Yeah. I agree.

TUCKER: Is demonic. And that's the LGBTQ religion. Or the global -- this weird global climate religion. That's what I'm saying.

GLENN: Yeah, I do. Yeah. You will bow down to it, as well.

Tucker, thank you.

We will see you on the seventh, at Salt Lake City. At the Delta center.

It will be -- I have a feeling, it will be spiraling out of control at some point.

On September 7th.

Salt Lake City. Delta Center.

Join Tucker Carlson, and I live on the seventh.

You can get your tickets now at Tucker Carlson.com. That's Tucker Carlson.com.

Tucker, thanks. Talk to you.

TUCKER: You're the best. See you.

Has THIS Islamist organization BROKEN state laws for YEARS?!

A new report accuses CAIR Action, the political arm of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, of breaking state laws with its political activism. Glenn Beck reviews this story...

GLENN: So let me go over what is -- what's happening with -- with CAIR.

You know, the Founding Fathers were obsessed over accountability.

Because they knew one thing. You know, they did. They must get suggestions from people on, you know, through tweets. They studied every single system of government.

Every single republic that survived. That didn't survive.

Why didn't it survive?

They studied all forms of government. They were trying to come up with something that could -- could set people free.

And they -- they worked really hard on putting our checks and balances in place, because they knew, once power slips into the shadows. They knew, once power slips into the shadows, once influence becomes unmoored from law, what rises is not a republic.

It's a machine. And that's what you're seeing right now. We're not living in a republic. We're living in a machine.

We -- I think we're staring at one of the largest unregulated political machines operating in the United States ever! Okay.

There have been a couple of groups that are doing sweeping investigations, two watchdog groups. One of them is NCRI and the Intelligent Advocacy Network.

And they have concluded now that the political arm of CAIR, he known as CAIR action, has been operating nationwide with no legal authority, to do the things it has been doing for years now.

They're not allowed to raise money. They've been raising money. Coordinating political campaigns.

Not allowed to do it. Endorsing candidates. Not allowed to do it, they're doing it. Mobilizing voters, shaping policy, functioning as a national advocacy network.

They don't have the legal authority to do any of it. And no one has said anything.

Now, according to the report, CAIR action doesn't just have a paperwork problem.

Investigators found, state by state, that it lacks the license, the registrations. The charitable authorizations, required to legally solicit money.

Excuse me. Or conduct political activity, in any of the 22 states in which it operates. Think of that!

I know how serious this is, because I remember what it took to get the license in each and every state, for Mercury One.

So we could operate. We could raise money. We could do things in those states. It's a lot of work. And if you don't do it, you go to jail. And they find out pretty quickly.

Okay?

22 states, they operate not one, zero legal authorization.

In Washington, DC, the city where CAIR action is incorporated, the department of licensing and consumer protection told investigators, they have no record of CAIR action ever obtaining the basic business license required to solicit funds or to operate.

Imagine how long would you last in business, especially if you were controversial.

How long would you remain in business, if you never had a business license?

You think somebody would figure that out?

In a sooner time than I don't know. A couple of decades!

This report means, that the organization if true, is engaging in unlicensed inner state solicitation.

It has exposed itself to allegations as serious as deceptive solicitation. Wire fraud and false statements to the IRS. These are big things.

And this is not political rhetoric.

Are these phrases written in black and white. In the law.

And by investigators. In California, one of CAIR's most active hubs. The state attorney general has said, the state attorney general of California has said, same pattern here!

The state of California, to say, yep. That's what's happening here.

CAIR action has never registered with California's charitable registry.

Never filed the required CT1 form. And has no authorization whatsoever to request donations. But they've been doing it in California anyway.

Fundraising, selling memberships. Issuing endorsements. Mobilizing voters. All of that has been done by CAIR action. There's no record of any license. Any permission, ever. Going to CAIR. From California. That's according to their attorney general.

Wow!

That's pretty remarkable, huh? How does that happen?

It's not just the coast. It is also happening to the Midwest, the South, the Mountain West. Every state hosting its own CAIR action fundraising page, complete with the donate now and become a member portal, despite no trace of the legal filings required to operate. That's bad!

Now, here's where the stakes rise.

Because CAIR action presents itself openly, as the political arm of CAIR National.

Investigators are now warning that any unauthorized fundraising or political activity.

Could become CAIR's national responsibility as well.

So, in other words, the parent, CAIR itself, might be held responsible.

Meaning, this is want just a rogue subdivision.

This could implicate the entire National Organization of CAIR.

Now, this is happening at the same time it's coming under national scrutiny. It's also Texas.

And I think Florida have designated the group a foreign terrorist organization. Members of Congress are now asking the IRS, the Treasury, the Department of Education to investigate all of its partnerships, all of its financing, all of its influence operations. I mean, I think they're going to be in trouble.

How long have we been saying this?

But every time, I have pointed out anything about CAIR, I have been called an Islamophobe, which shuts everything down. That is a word, developed by people like CAIR, to shut people down, so you'll never look into them.

So what happens next?

First of all, the reports have to hold up.

Regulators now have an obligation. Not a choice. An obligation to act!

State attorneys general in these 22 states, they might pursue fines, injunctions, criminal referrals.

All of them need to take action!

The IRS, needs to take action. Investigate tax exempt fraud. Treasury Department may review foreign influence or money flow violations.

Anything coming from overseas.

Oh, I can't imagine it. They're so buttoned up, right now.

DC regulators may determine whether CAIR actions entire fundraising operation has been unlawful from the beginning.

But here's the deeper question. And it's not bureaucratic. This one is constitutional.

Can the United States tolerate an influence machine, that operates outside of the legal framework, designed to prevent corruption, foreign leverage, and untraceable money?

If I hear one more time, talking about how AIPAC has just got to be investigated. Fine. Investigate.

I'm not against it.

Investigate.

Why aren't you saying anything about CAIR?

It feels like it might be a tool in the hands of a foreign operation.

Why aren't you saying anything about this?

Because here it is! It's not like, hey. I wonder why.

This is it! This is it! This isn't about silencing CAIR. Muslim Americans are -- that are full citizens, they have every right to speak. Every right to vote. Every right to organize. Participate in public life. No question! They can disagree with me, all they want.

But no organization. None! Not mine. Not yours. Not theirs. None. Should operate a nationwide political network, in the shadows and be immune from all of the guardrails that every other group must follow!

That's called a fourth branch of government!

That's how a fourth branch goes.

By the way, CAIR has placed all kinds of people in our Department of Homeland Security. Et cetera, et cetera. This organization has done it!

This is -- you cannot have a fourth branch of government.

They must abide by the laws.

No -- you can't have a branch that nobody elected. Nobody oversees.

Nobody holds accountable.

We talked about this yesterday, on yesterday's podcast. So what needs to happen is total transparency. CAIR action has to release its filings. Its donor structure. Its compliance records, if they exist. Equal enforcement under the law. I don't want them prosecuted in special ways.

Look, if AIPAC is doing the same thing. AIPAC should be prosecuted exactly the same way.
I want it equal. I want constitutional rule.

If conservatives, if Catholics, pro-Israel, environmental, Second Amendment groups, if they have to comply by the state law, so does CAIR action.

And if CAIR action has to do it, so do the Second Amendment groups and environmentalists, and pro-Israel and conservative groups. The law cannot be selective. It can't be!

I don't know how that's controversial in today's world. But somehow or another, they will find a way.

The Feds have to review all of this. If the report is accurate, the IRS and the Treasury have to determine whether false statements or unlicensed interstate solicitations have occurred.

Americans deserve to know what exactly, who is influencing our elections. Who is shaping our policy? Who is raising money in their state?

Especially physical the organization claims political authority, that it doesn't legally possess.

Because history will teach us one unchanging lesson. When a republic stops enforcing its own laws, someone else will always step in to fill that vacuum because power abhors a vacuum!

Unregulated, political power abhors a free people. So while it's about CAIR, it's not about Muslim Americans. It's not about religion.

As always, at least on this program, we try to make it about the rule of law.

One standard for everyone or no standard at all!

And that more than anything, will determine whether or not our institutions remain worthy of the freedom and responsibility that we have entrusted to them.

Glenn Beck WARNS Democrats Will Return with VENGEANCE in 2026 | Glenn TV | Ep 473

America is entering a year of historic upheaval from Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the spiritual shock that followed, to Trump’s tariff revolution, China’s rare-earth war, collapsing energy grids, AI displacement, and the looming fights over Taiwan and Venezuela. Glenn sits down with BlazeTV hosts ‪@deaceshow‬ and ‪@lizwheeler‬ along with his head researcher Jason Buttrill, to break down the biggest stories of 2025. Plus, they each give their most explosive prediction for 2026 that could shape our politics, economy, national security, and civil rights in ways Americans have never experienced before.

Trump Just SHATTERED the “Expert Class” - And the Deep State is in Total Panic

For nearly a century, Washington DC has been ruled by an unelected “expert class” operating as an unconstitutional fourth branch of government — accountable to no one, removable by no president, and shielded from all consequences. Glenn breaks down why Trump’s firing of the Federal Trade Commissioner could finally dismantle the 1935 precedent that empowered technocrats, how Ketanji Brown Jackson exposed the Supreme Court’s embrace of expert rule, and why America cannot survive a government run by people who never face the voters and never pay for their failures.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Okay. So President Donald Trump fired the federal trade commissioner Rebecca Slaughter. Federal Trade Commission is an administrative position. I mean, this is under -- the head of the federal trade commission is a cabinet member.

And if the justices uphold Trump's firing of Slaughter, that will overturn a precedent that was horrible, that was set in 1935. Remember, 1935, we're flirting with fascism. You know, everybody thinks. Because they haven't seen the horrors of fascism yet.

Everybody thinks fascism is neat, blah, blah. So what they do is they say that this is an independent person. And the president can't fire them. Because they're, you know, an independent agency.

Well, wait. That would make a fourth branch of government. Our Constitution is really clear.

There is no such thing as a fourth branch of government. Right?

So that's what they're deciding. Now, here is Ketanji Brown Jackson, who is talking about how we really need to listen to the experts. Cut four.

VOICE: Because presidents have accepted that there could be both an understanding of Congress and the presidency. That it is in the best interest of the American people to have certain kinds of issues, handled by experts. Who, and I think you -- in your colloquy, Justice Kagan, have identified the fact that these boards are not only experts, but they're also nonpartisan. So the -- the seats are actually distributed in such a way, that we are presumably eliminating political influence because we're trying to get to science and data and actual facts, related to how these decisions are made.

And so the real risk, I think, of allowing non- -- of allowing these kinds of decisions to be made by the president, of saying, everybody can just be removed when I come in, is that we will get away from those very important policy considerations.

VOICE: We will get away from US policy considerations, and it will create opportunities for all kinds of problems that Congress and prior presidents wanted to avoid, risks that flow inevitably, just given human nature, the realities of the world that we live in.

GLENN: Okay.

Now, remember, what she's saying here is, we have to have experts.

We have to have experts. We have to have experts that don't really answer to anybody. Okay?

They're appointed. And then they're just there. This from a, quote, judicial expert, who cannot define a woman, because she's not a doctor.
She's not a scientist.

She needs an expert to define a woman.
That's how insane her thinking is. Okay?

Now, I would just like to ask the Supreme Court, when you want things run by experts, do you mean things like the State Department, or the counsel of foreign relations, that have gotten us into these endless war wars for 100 years?

Because these are the things that Woodrow Wilson wanted. He wanted the country run by experts.

Okay. So is it like the Council of Foreign Relations, that keep getting us into these endless wars.

Or is it more like the Fed, that directs our fiscal policy, that has driven us into $38 trillion of at the time. We have all powerful banks. That strangely all belong to the fed. And endless bailouts for those banks. Are those the experts that you're talking about?

Or are you talking about the experts that are doctors, that gave the country sterilizations, lobotomies, transgender surgeries. You know, or should we listen to the experts, like the ones that are now speaking in Illinois, to get us death on demand like Canada has, with their MAID assisted suicide, which is now the third largest killer in Canada. MAID, assisted suicide, third largest killer in Canada. Experts are saying, we now need it here, and they're pushing for it in Illinois. Or should we listen to the experts? And I think many of them are the same experts strangely, that brought us COVID. Yeah. That was an expert thing. They were trying to protect us. Because they need to do this for our protection. So direct from the labs in China with the help of the American experts like Fauci. We almost put the world out.

Should we listen to those guys?

Or the experts that brought us masking, and Home Depot is absolutely safe. But Ace Hardware wants to kill grandma. Which are the experts that we want? That we want to make sure that we have in our lives? That they don't answer, or can't be fired by anybody. Because I'm pretty full up on the experts, myself. I don't know.

But you're right. These experts would keep the president in check, and they would keep Congress in check. And you in check!

And the Supreme Court, which would be really great. You know, and you know who else they would keep in check? The people.

So, wow, it seems like we would just be a nation run by experts, and our Constitution would be out the window, because that's a fourth branch!

And if you don't believe me, that, you know, these experts never pay a price. Can you name a single expert?

Give me a name of an expert, that gave us any of the things that I just told you about.

Give me the name. I mean, give me the name of one of them. Give me the name of one of them that went to jail. Give me the name of one expert that has been discredited.

You know, where your name will be mud in this town. Do you know where that came from?

Your name is going to be mud. It's not M-U-D. It's M-U-D-D, that comes from Dr. Samuel Mudd. Okay? He was a docks man. He was an expert. He was that set John Wilkes Booth' broken leg. He made crutches. He let him stay there for a while. He claimed he didn't know him, but he did know him.

In fact, one of the reasons they proved it.

Is because when he pulled the boots off -- when he pulled both of his boots off, right there, in the back, you couldn't have missed it. It said "John Wilkes Booth."

He's like, I have no idea who he was.

Yeah. Well, you knew him in advance. This was a predetermined outpost where he could stay. It's clear you could know him.

The guy was still discredited, we still use his name today. Your name will be mud in this town.

And we think that it's like dirt, mixed with water kind of mud. No, it's M-U-D-D, Dr. Mudd. The expert that was so discredited, went to jail, paid for his part of the assassination of -- of Lincoln.

Give me the name of one of the experts in the last 100 years, that has brought us any of the trials and the tribulations. The things that have almost brought us to our knees. Give me the name of one of them. Can't!

Because once an expert class, they don't answer to anyone. So they never go to jail.

Wow! Doesn't that sound familiar. People never going to jail!

There's a rant that's going around right now, that I did in 2020. And everybody is like, see. He's talking about Pam Bondi.

No, no. I got to play this for you, a little later on in the program. But I want to get to the experts and what the Constitution actually says about that. Because you don't need my opinion. What you need are the actual facts. So you can stand up and say, yeah. I think Ketanji Brown Jackson is an idiot. Okay?

And she's really not an expert on anything. Especially the Constitution. You need the facts, on what the Founders said. Because the Founders would be absolutely against what they did in 1935.

Because that just -- what does it do?

It just sets up a fourth branch of government.

EXPLAINED: Why the Warner-Netflix/Paramount Merger is DANGEROUS for All of Us

The biggest media merger in modern history is unfolding, and Glenn Beck warns it’s the most dangerous consolidation of power America has faced in decades. With six corporations already controlling 90% of the nation’s news and entertainment, a Warner-Netflix or Warner-Paramount megacorporation would create an unstoppable information cartel. Glenn exposes how “too big to fail” thinking is repeating itself, how global elites and “experts” are tightening their grip, and why handing our entire cultural narrative to a handful of companies is a direct threat to freedom. The hour is late — and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

GLENN: By the way, it's never good when you consolidate power. It's never good.

And what is going on now, with this Netflix Warner Brothers paramount stuff, I don't care if Larry Ellison is a conservative or not.

No one should have that much power.

I did a show, gosh, four years ago. I don't even remember when I did it.

We looked it up. In the 1980s. 19 percent of American media was owned by over 50 companies.

Forty years later, 90 percent of the media is watched and controlled by six companies.

National Amusements, the Red Stone Family controls CBS, CMT, MTV, Nickelodeon, gaming and internet. Simon & Schuster Books. That's all one.

Disney, ABC, ESPN, History Channel, Marvel, Star Wars, video games and print.

TimeWarner controls CNN, Warner Brothers, HBO, Turner, video games, internet, and print media like TIME. Comcast, MSNBC, NBC.

CNBC, Telemundo, the Internet.

New Corp. Fox. National Geographic. Ton of others. Sony, with a ton of movies, music and more. The big six. They're valued at nearly $500 billion.

Now, this is something I put together five years ago. So I don't even know. This is probably not even valid even today.

And now we're talking about Netflix, Warner Brothers. Paramount, into all of these one giant corporation. It's wrong! It's wrong!

We can't keep putting all -- everything into the hands of just a few! It's what's killing us!

We've got to spread this around. We can't -- the government cannot okay mergers like this.

They're big enough he has

What happened -- what happened when the banks went under, or almost went under in '08. What did they say the problem was?

They said the banks are too big to fail.

Too big to fail.

Because they were providing all of the services, everybody needs. All the time. And there's only a handful of them.

So if they fall, then everything falls.

Right?

That was the problem. So what did we do to fix it?

We made them bigger!

We let them merge with other banks, and gobble up other things!

And started taking on the local banks.

And so now, your banks that were too big to fail. Are now even bigger. And their failure would be even worse!

What is wrong with us?

Seriously, we're not this stupid.

We're not this stupid.

I think we're just this comfortable.

We just think the experts have a plan. No. The experts don't have a plan.

Their plan is stupid. Their plan is to make it bigger.

Every time it fails. Make it bigger. Push it up.

Make it more global.

No. Haven't you seen what the entire world is like?

The entire world is over-leveraged. The entire world is on the edge.

The entire world is being redesigned.
So what do we do? We don't allow them to make things bigger! We need to start taking more individual and local control of things. They're making it bigger. Which will make the problem bigger. And make the problem so big, you won't be able to do anything about it, because all the experts. All of the heads. They'll all -- there will be six of them. And they will all be sitting in one room.

And they will all be making the instigations. And with them, making those decisions will be all the heads of all the countries around the world, that you're not going to have a say in any of that. They're already trying to do it with the WEF.

But if -- if the Supreme Court says, no, experts matter. And the president can't fire them. You will not have any control over anything!

We're at this place, where we can back out. We can turn around.

We can do it.

It's not too late. But the hour is growing very late.

I don't know about you, I don't like being this.

Up to the edge, you know what I mean?

I would rather have lots of breathing room, between me and the edge of the cliff.

But we don't have that anymore.

Everything has to be done right.

And we have to pay attention.

And the worst thing we can do is make things bigger.

Dream big, think small.
